"Zheng Xingxing, still not there." A guard reported.
Zheng Jianzi paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Five or six large holes were dug in various places in the courtyard. Boxes and cabinets were also rummaged through the main house and side rooms, making a mess.
I've dug three feet into the ground, why is there still nothing? Where will things be? Several of his disciples were looking at him, waiting for his further orders.
Zheng Jianzi had a headache. This time he had crossed the line.
Zheng Jianzi mainly traveled in the state of Zheng, and the state of Chen was not his territory. He came quietly without knowing the local Chang Xingxing. He couldn't explain it to him. It was nothing more than other things. He came to dig for treasures. If you notice it, it must be a big trouble.
Now that the stolen goods have not been found even after digging three feet into the ground, where will the peach blossom club be?
While he was thinking about it, Jing Er, the guard under the door, came over the wall and reported in a low voice: "The people in Taoyuan Ji said that yesterday afternoon, someone asked if anyone lived in this house and said they wanted to buy it. The person who asked was wearing a straw hat and kept pressing. With the brim of the hat on, you can’t really see his appearance.”
Zheng Jianzi immediately asked: "How many people? Where have they gone?"
Jing Er said: "The bartender didn't know where he went... he was alone."
"Why are you saying it now?" Zheng Jianzi was very dissatisfied, but he remembered that this was not Xinzheng, but Xiangcheng of Chen State, which was beyond his control, so he said: "Keep an eye on it, it's going to be daybreak, look carefully Who has the idea of this house... Also, especially keeping an eye on Chang Xingxing. Chang Zisheng couldn't have gotten the news any later. He rushed here from Wanqiu in just one day. If he met him Anyone, please report immediately!"
Jing Er left in response to the order, and Zheng Xingxing felt even more pressed for time and ordered his disciples: "Keep digging! If you can't find it after digging three feet, dig four or five feet, and be quick!"
His disciples worked hard to dig, one person responsible for each pit, and the soil and sweat were really flying together. Zheng Xingxing couldn't bear it anymore, so he flew out the magic weapon, found a place under the eaves, and started digging.
One foot, two feet, three feet, four feet... Zheng Xingxing was very satisfied with the speed of digging holes.
Ten feet, nine feet, eight feet, seven feet... Wu Sheng was equally satisfied with the speed at which he and Master Dongzhan dug the holes. The further we dig, the heavier and slower the process of transporting the earthwork in sacks and sending it out becomes. It is quite difficult to maintain the current progress.
"Stop, how many feet taller is it?"
"Five feet."
"It's almost seven feet above the ground. Don't dig any further. Let's open up the surrounding area. Master, you go to the left and I'll go to the right."
Wu Sheng first dug to the right to create a way out. Master Dongzhan climbed up and then dug to the left. After digging for half an hour, they each opened up a distance of about ten feet.
According to the survey of the size of the house yesterday, the total distance of more than two feet should be the width of the yard, so Wu Sheng told Dongzhan to change the direction and continue digging.
Wu Sheng dug another three feet, and suddenly the soil layer in front of him was broken open, as if a window had been opened. Opposite the window was a brand new tunnel.
Wu Sheng thought at first that the tunnel with Master Dongsun was dug, but when he flicked his fingers and lit the fire, he found that it was not the case. This tunnel was winding, with twists and turns every three or five feet. Compared with him and Dongsun, The straight tunnel dug by the Master was obviously different. In addition, the height of this tunnel is less than two feet, and the width on the left and right is much narrower. It can only accommodate the body crawling in it - it is absolutely impossible to move forward or backward, and turn around.
Could it be the tunnel dug by Peach Blossom? Looks like I found it!
Overjoyed, Wu Sheng got in and crawled in the tunnel. As he climbed, he wondered how Peach Blossom dug out such a narrow tunnel, and how did she send all the earth out?
Suddenly, I found something crawling on the soil beneath me. I was suddenly horrified and startled. I lowered my head to check with the help of a weak flame. In fact, I didn’t even need to lower my head at all. I found an unknown stick just under my neck. A hose made of some material, as thick as an arm, stuck to the soil. In this hose, there is something unknown moving from front to back.
Wu Sheng was really shocked this time. There was someone in front of the hose!
He held his breath and did not dare to move. He lowered the flames by two points and listened. However, he could only vaguely hear breathing sounds in front of him. He didn't know what he was doing, but because the tunnel was too curved, he couldn't see who it was. Panting.
After listening for a moment, his breathing suddenly became louder, and he seemed to be happy. Wu Sheng understood a little bit. Someone had dug a tunnel before him and Master Dongsun, and wanted to compete with him for the treasure buried by Peach Blossom Niang!
It is unbearable!
Wu Sheng thought for a moment, took out the Feihong Sword, and cut the hose first. The hose was not strong and obviously not a good material. Fei Hongjian was extremely sharp and cut it off with a single slash. Piles of soil immediately "squirmed" from the breach.
It turns out that a hose is used to transport the soil and clean it out. It seems that this hose is also a magic weapon, but I don't know what it is called.
Wu Sheng sneered and watched as piles of soil poured out and gradually filled the tunnel.
Just when he was about to sit back and watch the tunnel being blocked, he suddenly saw a piece of jasper "squirming" out of the hose. Wu Sheng was stunned for a moment - this guy had found the treasure left by Peach Blossom Girl!
He stretched out his hand to wipe away the mound of soil again, grabbed the jasper, and looked at it under the weak firelight. It turned out to be a good spiritual material.
Immediately afterwards, a gourd filled with spiritual energy, a black dead wood, a ball of black silk, and a round stone "squirmed" out of the breach in the hose...
Wu Sheng's eyes were suddenly filled with spiritual materials, reaching the tip of his nose.
He quickly took out the Feihong Sword and cut several of his fingers. He had extensive experience in self-mutilation and knew how strong his own skin was. He cut quickly and hard, and finally made several wounds. He quickly smeared the blood on these spiritual materials and put them into storage one by one.
Spiritual materials, magic weapons, elixirs, and various treasures kept "squirming" out and piled in front of Wu Sheng's nose. Wu Sheng could only grit his teeth and continue bleeding, putting away one by one.
When the spoils were divided that day, Peach Blossom Girl got four boxes, which was twice as much as what Wu Sheng got. Wu Sheng kept cutting, bleeding, and squeezing the blood. He worked for a long time and packed more than a hundred good things into the store. He moved his fingers around things until he felt faintly dizzy and light-headed, and then he stopped.
But the spiritual materials are still coming.
Wu Sheng thought for a while, and simply pulled up the cut section of hose behind him. He pulled it for four or five feet before pulling it to the end. He tied the opening on one side tightly, tied it into a long bag, and then The spiritual materials that continued to "squirm" were stuffed into the bag.
After stuffing another twenty or thirty treasures into the bag, the hose in front stopped transporting things. Wu Sheng estimated that there were almost four boxes, so he dragged the bag back.
